PASSED
The enacted ordinance creates citywide rules for farmers’ markets, requiring market operators to obtain annual licenses and follow requirements for approved locations, fees, vendor identification, stand setup, cleanup, and operating hours. It also updates street-vending and sidewalk-sale rules so farmers’ markets licensed under the new section are governed by these specific requirements instead of those provisions.
